Effect and Concern of Breastfeeding in Infants
Abstract:
Human breast milk is considered the optimal source of nutrition for infants and is recommended as the exclusive nutrient source for term infants during the first six months of life. Existing evidence strongly supports the direct benefits of breastfeeding, encompassing benefits for nutrition, gastrointestinal function, and protection against acute illness in both term and preterm infants. Previously, we demonstrated a notable reduction in a urinary marker of oxidative DNA damage in breastfed term and preterm infants compared to formula-fed infants. While long-term benefits of breastfeeding on neurodevelopmental outcomes and adult health have been reported, the effects may be relatively modest and limited.

Development of Immunocompetence
The initial cells that migrate from the fetal thymus settle within the skin and epithelial tissues lining the mouth, digestive tract, and in females, the uterus and vagina. These cells, including skin-based dendritic cells, serve as antigen-presenting cells, playing a key role in T cell activation.
